There, faced with the void at the heart of twentieth-century Europe, he struggles to rescue his heritage from oblivion..
When he is a much older man, fleeting memories return to him, and obeying an instinct he only dimly understands, Austerlitz follows their trail back to the world he left behind a half century before.
A small child when he comes to England on a Kindertransport in the summer of 1939, Jacques Austerlitz is told nothing of his real family by the Welsh Methodist minister and his wife who raise him.
Austerlitz is the story of a man\'s search for the answer to his life\'s central riddle.
Sebald\'s celebrated masterpiece includes a new Introduction by acclaimed critic James Wood.
